Do you think it is worth using this directory?

[VinceWicks]

I mean if it will be beneficial for my project (site) to get listed at web-designers-directory.org  Any thoughts on that or you had the experience of working with that site?

I think it al depends on a lot of factors. Personay i would never pay $ 139 since you probably wont get an work out of it. I think you should find out first how many listing they have and what your change is to get work from it.( i think you want to get work from there)

You might find a lot of free or paid but way less local directories where the change of getting a project from is much bigger.

So do some research first but not just pay the fee and hope you'll be getting project.

No.

The site violates Google's guidelines for a directory site. It is likely Google is aware of the site and has devalued all the links so they have no value for Google ranking. Even if the links are not valued today, it is likely any time Google would become aware of the site and devalue it's links.

No ways, i would never use this for aqcuiring a link.

The price is ridiculous and Ryan said, Google will slam this site one of these days and there goes down $139.00 .

For $139.00 i would rather invest that in other link building techniques. This one is a NO NO

You might find it valuable to read the recent SEOmoz post about link directory best practices at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/seo-link-directory-best-practices. It talks a lot about good directories, then links to the recently updated list of directories that SEOmoz has compiled.
